Blue Sky Farm

My blogging posts and photos are part of me . I think of this as a scrapbook of my life. The names have not been changed.. they are real people who have crossed my path along my journey. Some I know intimately, my family and friends. If their names are mentioned it's a sure sign they are special to me and I love them dearly...come along see for yourself, perhaps you know some of them too..

It's Fall In Klamath Falls...

It is fall around here..This weekend I decorated my front porch, door and made some yummy Granola. It is my sisters recipe and she makes it every year for christmas giving..
A great homemade treat.

This should have been my Friday Food entry #7




















I strung some orange lights along the railing as well..

5 cups coarse rolled oats
½ cup untoasted sesame seeds
½ -¾ cup raw sunflower seeds
1 cup raw peanuts with skins

½ cup chopped pecans
½ cup sliced almonds
½ cup slivered almonds
1 cup flake coconut


1/2 cup maple syrup
½ cup honey
1/8 cup canola oil
1teaspoon vanilla
Mix dry ingredients in a large bowl, Mix syrup, honey, oil & vanilla together & stir into the dry oat mixture.
Mixture will be crumbly & sticky

Looks like that ceramic chicken wants to dive right in!

Looks good although I'd rather have a BBQ New York steak! LOL
